See, nobody knows, and again all we got was silence from NJTU, NJOA, The Federation and F&W.

Many decisions were made on the fly because of how things were changing and being orchestrated by Governor Murphy. At this point, it doesn't matter if we are kept in the loop or not. If the trout are all in, it's a done deal. If not, they are not going to let us know where the trout will be stocked or when. I don't like being uninformed either, but things are happening at light speed and some of the information is in a time warp. Pick a day and just go fishing.

Per www.njfishand wildlife .com
The Division has reserved trout at the Pequest Trout Hatchery in anticipation of being able to resume stocking towards the end of May depending on the status of COV19, stream temps and waterbody access.

This from the state

Trout Season Is Open!

Due to an accelerated stocking schedule, most waters have already been generously stocked with their full allotment of trout. All regulations remain in effect except there will be NO IN-SEASON CLOSURES this spring on the 14 major streams where they normally would be in effect. Wildlife Management Areas remain open except for the Round Valley boat ramp.

Help keep WMAs and other areas open by observing proper social distancing!

Although state and county parks have closed there are nearly 125 other trout stocked waters open to the public for fishing. The Division has reserved trout at the Pequest hatchery in anticipation of being able to resume stocking towards the end of May, depending on the status of COVID-19, stream temps and public access.

Please keep your e-mail address and other information in the license database up-to-date (select Edit Customer Profile) so we can keep you informed of specific conditions affecting your hunting and fishing activities. See the links below to help you enjoy the outdoors during the pandemic:

who gives a **** if they stocked them all or held some back for a later date? that the state even got them stocked with what's going on is big kudos to them. At least they are there to fish for.

Complaining about this at a time like THIS is silly and petty. Grow up.
